Underwater

Views (180) Other Created on 2-11-08 Flag

Close your eyes,

Hold your breath,

Push yourself underwater,

And begin to drown.

Pierce your ears

With the beautiful voice of relief.

You can’t do anything right,

Let’s see how right you are when you’re dead.

Take a deep breath,

Feel your lungs fill up with water.

Any guilt you had,

Floats away with your heartbeat.

Despite this sudden dizziness,

You push on,

Further down, underwater.

All the color turns to gray,

It isolates you from fear.

Time passes in slow motion,

You quietly wait

For this underwater world

To pull you down for good.

teeniegirl015 This is really good...like the emotion is clearly shown and it makes the reader understand that there isn't any turning back for this person. They are decided and they are going to do it. It was good.
